Stephan Alsac is a wildlife Artist.

He works in oil and watercolor. His favorite subjects are the wild animals of Europe and Africa as well as dogs, hunting dogs for the most part.
Stephan’s approach could be defined as hyper-realist. The exact representation of wildlife anatomy and the realistic treatment of the subject’s texture captivate the viewer who can then fully appreciate the intended message and emotion communicated by the artist.”

He is a self-taught artist, having acquiring amazing technique by taking inspiration from the great portrait painters. “Caricature gave me the fundamentals for drawing: volume, shadow and light,” he explains.

An accomplished observer of nature, Stephan strives to reproduce on canvas all the moving sights he encounters on his weekends outdoors. A woodcock, a pointer in its famous stance, ducks in flight, anything can become the subject of one of his works. His brush strokes are delicate and the details so polished you could count his bird’s feathers and gaze tenderly at the expressive faces of the dogs. This is wildlife painting that Stephan performs with precision and a genuine dose of emotion.

Today, outside his professional activities and busy family life, Stephan devotes himself to his passion for wildlife art. In the evening, when the children are off to bed, he swaps pens and pencils for his brushes, and he works into the wee hours. He takes his time, and it often happens that he paints for 4 or 6 hours straight.
